A Pilot Study for Systematic Neonatal Screening for Lysosomal Storage Diseases Using Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LysoNeo)

May 21, 2026 updated by: University Hospital, Rouen

The study will include all newborns in Normandie region for 3 years (about 105,000 births) for whom signed consent by one (or two) parents will be collected. Based on our previous pilot study (2011) assessing MCAD and PKU using tandem mass spectrometry-based method in Normandie region in which informed consents have been signed for all newborns (43,000) but we are expecting a great willingness to participate to this project. Thus, we are aiming to include 100,000 newborns, and the study will be continued until we reach at least this target.

The primary objective is to evaluate the epidemiology of MPS1 and Pompe disease using dried blood samples in the first cohort of neonates tested in France (Normandie region).
